water and he was chest deep. >> we were off course, a navigation error. we were on the inside instead of the outside and hit what is called little alcatraz. two 1-foot by 1-foot holes on the back of the hull but only one hole filled. >> that was the good news i suppose. little alcatraz, the rocks near the short of the alcatraz is marked by warning bouys. the coast guard is investigating. the captain had no commentator abc7 news last night. neptune was towed to an unknown location last night. according to its website, neptune is described as a wine tasting party boat, but last night crewmembers say for the first time they had their first-ever beer tasting on board. but as you can tell, that party about not last very long. everybody who was on board was back here at pier 39 by about 9:00 p.m.

department rules over several protests over the past year. violations are mostly minor like officers failing to turn on their video recorders, all the way up to false arrest and excessive use of force. >> i think it might be the first step in the right direction for opd towards accountability. >> without naming names, the chief is recommending termination for two officers, one demotion, 15 suspensions, counseling and training for three officers and written reprimands for 23 others. >> this is very tough for howard jordan to do. it is very tough to discipline officers who you are asking to go out in violent situations but he's a good could cop and i think he's trying to be fair. >> the head of the police union is furious. blaming city hall for botching

the occupy protests and making officers the scapegoats. >> these officers never asked to be put on the front lines of occupy oakland multiple times. city leaders failed through their indecisiveness when it came to dealing with occupy. >> oakland is coming up on the one year deadline to investigate the complaints and the officers could be facing some hearings and arbitrations and the union is promising to defend them vigorously. in oakland, john alston, abc7 news. >> right now in hollister police are in a standoff with a person connected to a missing mother. 25-year-old heather carroll hasn't been seen since wednesday morning when she dropped her son off at school. her car was found burning. that was south of hollister thursday morning. police went to her house to interview a man about carol and it erupted into a standoff and a s.w.a.t. team was sent from the santa clara county sheriff's office. we will bring you updays as new information becomes available this morning. a couple whose crime spree started with a jailbreak is expected to be charged with a

help people and to sit there with idle hands is excruciating at times. >> fire regulations dictate crews may not enter a potentially dangerous scene until police declare it secure. >> we're is one of the stranger things you see on roads. we have the latest on moving the space shuttle inch by inch through the street. and it took more than 50 years but now a 93-year-old south bay

morning against two cal law statutes. eric and justin, both 24, were arrested in las vegas for be heading an exotic bird. the two chased a bird into trees at the flamingo's hotel wildlife habitat and they came out with the body and the severed head. the bird was a helmeted begin any fowl like this one. the men have been charged with malicious killing of wildlife. this weekend a santa clara woman along with three generations of her family will be celebrating her graduation from college. at age 93 the woman has finally earned her bachelor degree from san jose state. as abc7 news reporter sergio tells us, it's a degree that has been 72 years in the making. the balloons are up, the clay student is in his spot, and 93-year-old olive chandler is a bit giddy. she will soon be celebrating her graduation. >> i sort of want to wrap my

brain around this. [laughter] >> it's something her youngest daughter, donna, has been trying to help her mother finally accomplish after all these years. >> i just had always felt that it was something that she wanted, something that she had earned. the bachelor's degree issued by san jose state was granted after her daughter contacted the university. she was hoping they might send a nice letter to her mother recognizing how close they came to graduating in 1959. instead the school sent her a degree. >> you just got this three weeks ago then? >> about that. >> all right. who is this? >> that's me when i graduated from compton junior college in 1941 -- 1940. >> back in 1940 the plan was to ten her schooling and earn a teaching degree, but events kept delaying that plan. >> pearl harbor started? >> yeah, and i got married and left school. after a year and a half at santa

barbara state. >> she eventually returned to school and continued taking classes even as she raised her five children but she never collected a bachelor's degree until now. it's a big deal for someone who always encouraged her children, especially her daughters, to get an education. >> you educate a man, you educate an individual, you educate a woman, you educate a family, and that's what i feel like. >> in santa clara, sergio quintana, abc7 news. >> the degree is dated august, 1959, and it's in home economics. a discipline that doesn't exist at san jose anymore but faculty felt she had enough earned credits. barry manilow is hitting the winning note for san jose public schools e has donated a yamaha piano to launch a musical instrument drive for the school. if you donate a new or gently-used instrument at the

phase two of the replacement project will build another elevated roadway alongside the new one where the old structure sits now. when completed, the side by side bridges, as shown in this caltran animation, will carry three lanes of traffic in each direction with shoulders. >> this is as good as a grand slam yesterday, i think. you know how long this has been in the cooker, so to speak. >> much of the old doyle drive was demolished in a speedy 57 hours in april. the remaining structure will be torn down beginning sometime before the end of the year and will take three to four months. phase 2 will also include construction of multiple tunnels that will change the view of the bay and access to it from the presidio main post. this phase is a $1.4 billion project and it's being built only thanks to new state legislation allowing a public-private partnership. this segment of the project is the first of its kind. house minority leader nancy

the log indicates the police were called at 8:26:00 p.m. a fire truck with paramedics arrived 8 minutes later and an officer was dispatched 13 minutes later, arriving 17 minutes later. while it took the police department 17 minutes to respond to the scene with a man here on the ground, the fire department got on the scene but had to wait 10 minutes before they could administrator cpr. they had to wait for the police officers to declare the scene secure. police officers and firefighters working that day talk to us on camera on the condition we conceal their identities. they stress that delays can take a toll on saving lives. >> and those survivabilities increase with every single second and when you get to the minutes it becomes unrecoverable. >> it's a problem we've been seeing on the streets for quite some time now. and usually it doesn't have such a glaring result. in this case is certainly has. >> city officials acknowledge that 17 to 18 minutes is the

typical response time for a priority 2 call such as this. however, the goal is the 11 minutes. but that doesn't take into account how firefighters must stage a block or two away until a police officer gives the all clear. >> it's extremely frustrating. we are trained from the day we start training to save lives, to help people. and to sit there with idle hands is excruciating at times. >> while the firefighters waited, the victim died. and this underscores the fact that paramedics may be prevented from doing their job because of regulations. and the fire department rules bar them from entering into a potentially dangerous situation until a police officer declares the scene safe. in san jose, david louie, abc7 news. the federal government is accelerating the removal of decaying naval ships from the bay area. vessels so old they are an environmental hazard. the department of transportation said it has disposed of 36 ships

from the bay, far from its goal of 48 ships. three more are scheduled by year's end. the remaining 21 ships should be done within five years. it's one of three locations nationwide where the government stores it's mothball fleet. >> that bay is warming up today. in the 70s there. it's been cloudy for days all around the bay area. but now we have a little bit of a lifting mechanism pushing through the bay area right now. a weak cold florence it bring rain, mist, drizzle he will? lots of questions with the next cold front but more answers to come and you may like them i think. >> glad you have them. thank you, lisa. and also the car of the future. we will show you the new collaboration between silicon valley and one of the world's top auto makers. a woman's service warranty gets her five free repairs. problem, her machine still doesn't work. i'm michael

>> welcome back. your home, your office, your mobile device, all of them connected. what about your car? abc7 news reporter jonathan bloom explains why one of the world's biggest auto makers is now linked to the world's biggest computer networking company. >> you have a meter on here. i'll show you the battery charge and how far you can go. >> toyota executive bill ryanert is showing off an all-electric car that you will probably never drive. >> this car is not intended for sale. this car is intended for other purposes. , experimental purposes. >> this car is a concept car. a platform to try out technologies for the next generation of connected vehicles. >> not just our smartphones and tablets, but everything in our lives will be internet enabled and that's happening as we speak. and the connected vehicle is connected to revolution and mobility. >> that's why networking giant cisco is holding on invitational meeting only with toyota as the sponsor.

they want to work with every car manufacturer to make vehicles as smart as everything else. >> the car knows as a result of my cell phone who is getting in the car. my wife likes classical and i like jazz. doesn't have to play jazz when she's in the car. it only does it for me. >> but the executives meeting here agree this is only the beginning. and the technology in this car could end up paving the way for whole cities of cars that drive themselves. google has been showing off a prototype of a driverless car but bringing it to market is a lot easier in the car companies and network companies start working together now to make city streets ready for the technology. >> and planning for things that don't exist now but you know they are coming so you don't have to tear up the city streets and don't have to recon figure the streets to add new technologies.

>> and cars already talking to each other to avoid crashes but a fully diverless car is ten years away. but connected city streets will have other benefits. >> the network will have sensers in the roadway or the parking place that the internet can tell my vehicle it's time to park because there's not going to be a parking space after this sensor has established there's a free spot. >> in san francisco, jonathan bloom, abc7 news. >> meteorologist lisa argen now. last you teed us with rain, heat, sun, clouds. what is going on out there? >> you know this, is the season for a cold front and a little precip. we saw that the past couple days. and yet another front is push through the bay area right now. it is less than a half-hour away from sunrise and from our sutro camera you can tell we will see plenty of that. what's the deal with the cold front? it's mixing out all the clouds. sun coming up 7:17 and setting at 6:34. 11 hours, 17 minutes of day light. live doppler 7 hd, yeah, we are on our way to a big pattern change, but this morning it will be subtle. but in the days ahead you are

going to want to make some plans and really change the ward rope up a little bit and maybe head out to the beach by midweek. here's a look. you will notice we have some clouds to the east of us. also up in santa rosa it is kind of gray, and the numbers ever cool. 46 now. 45 by the delta. you were down to 43 earlier. and the mildest reading, 54 at downtown with the mid-40s all the way down toward san jose. loss got tas typically cool in the higher elevations there with seven degrees of coming up in the hills since yesterday. but look at san jose. you are nine degrees cooler than you were yesterday morning. usually we see that in our north bay valleys. but really some breaks in that overcast, the longer nights and slightly dryer air, allowing for the cooler start. so we will call it partly cloudy this morning. more sunshine on the way. and we will have a return to some mild autumn-like temperatures today. so really what you would expect for mid-october. but then into next week not only are we warming up, we are talking about an offshore flow,

even our beaches are going to experience some warmer weather. there's the low. it was situated off the coast all week long. and it really did bring a little precip here and, there but now with it to the east of us, not a factor anymore. i talked about a week cold front pushing through the bay area. we had the low level moisture. but this is providing that listing mechanism that is allowing for the lower levels of the atmosphere to keep that fog away. by 8:00 this morning, well, you know, from our live shot we are already pretty clear out there in the city. we will look for a few clouds around the south bay. our east bay valleys. but today out of those 60s and those 50s from our coast and a warmer afternoon. 72 big sur with low 60s in the sierra nevada right any. 27 degrees in truckie. pretty chilly there. mid-60s in sacramento. a beautiful afternoon. the pumpkin festival, half moon bay, low 60s for the afternoon high about 3:00.

70s san mateo with mid-60s returning for sonoma, napa. our east bay valleys, 76 in livermore and the low 70s for san jose. the santa clara valley, maybe some mid-70s. hollister 76 with more sunshine and 65 in monterey. so here's the accuweather seven day forecast. mid-60s inland to the low 5*8 # 80s a tomorrow. not much change monday but getting warmer tuesday. very warm on wednesday. of course, the 49ers on thursday. look at our inland temperatures. 90. mid-60s at our beaches. that's that offshore flow get being pretty warm around here. >> looks good. good luck for the niners, i think. thanks, lisa. it can be very many to have a service warranty for your appliances that can cover any kneed repairs. but do you really get free service?

>> michael finney explains the answer is yes-- and no. >> it's not working. >> she is showing us what happened the day her clothes dryer conked out. >> push the button, nothing. nada. >> just a big load of soggy clothes and no way to dry them. luckily josephine purchased this extended service warranty from whirlpool. >> a nice young man came out, checked everything with his little electrical prong, he said, oh, it's the timer. >> a technician told josephine to order a new timer and he would come back to install it. >> he came again. well, it's defective. the timer is defective. >> so josephine went through the process all over again. she ordered the part, another technician came out, this guy shook his head. >> he said, well, you know, it's not the timer. it's the door switch. >> josephine said the technician didn't have a switch for her dryer, but he did have one for a dishwasher. so he installed that one instead. >> well, it worked for two days. and then it quit. >> so another repairman came out. he had the most low-tech solution of all. >> he said do you have any

electrical tape? he said the screw has come lose. >> the tape didn't help so the technician said he would be back in a couple of weeks. weeks? that was too long. >> oh, boy, at that point my patience was turning into anger. >> it had been eight weeks since her dryer broke and during all that time josephine was putting her wet clothes in these plastic bags, driving them to her nieces house and drying them there. she found out wet clothes are very heavy, especially after back surgery. >> i just have two towels and then do little things at a time. >> finally josephine called her own repair shop and paid her own repair. two days later the dryer was working but she was out $150. >> that's when i went to 7 on your side. >> we contacted whirlpool and it stepped up right away. the company agreed to pay for that repair and refunded the cost of her warranty. within days josephine received this check for $256.

whirlpool said it's always disheartening when a consumer issue is not able to be resolved quickly. and any appliance there can be several components involved with a given function and sometimes it takes more than one attempt to solve an issue. >> i'm so surprised and happy. and thankful that kgo could help me. >> josephine said now that the dryer is working, doing laundry never seemed so easy. i would like to change whirlpool for stepping up to resolve this so quickly. i'm michael finney, 7 on your side. coming up next, an early start to halloween. the annual half moon bay art and pumpkin festival starts this
